Upcoming September-October Blood Drives

The American Red Cross urges people not to wait to make a lifesaving impact this fall by scheduling a blood donation appointment in September and October. 

The blood supply remains vulnerable after recovering from critically low levels during a summer blood shortage, and now is the time for donors of all blood types to help patients who count on blood products for care.

Book a time to give blood or platelets by by using the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). 

Upcoming blood drives include:

September 25 - St. Joseph's Parish Center in Ellinwood (Noon to 6 PM)

October 2 - St. Wenceslaus Catholic Church in Wilson (Noon to 6 PM)

October 5 - St. Bernard's Catholic Church in Ellsworth (Noon to 6 PM)
